Not a bad figure, but I really don't get to 1 Dinar being worth $1.47 that way.... 1 Dollar would be worth 1.47 Dinar!

Just trying to get things clear for myself - all these figures are getting my head a bit dizzy. Reading the last rumours I started hoping the Dinar might reval to more than a dollar.... maybe I'm getting greedy? 670.000 Dollars for my million should really be enough!!!

see on the cbi page where it equates 1 dollar with .00067?. that means the figure of .00067 is dinar. dollar:dinar thats the pair they are refering to. they pair the dinar with the other major currencies as well.
same with if you say dollar:euro and quote the price of that pair.

Since Rolclub came back online after the hack/crash/burn the time has been all squankas (screwed up). Is there anyway to reset it? for instance - my time is now 5:30 pacific time - but the time of the most recent post says 12:29 a.m. It's driving me batty. HELP!

Nothing wrong with Rolclubs server now. You might want to go to your User's Contor Panel at the top and then go to Edit Optins. Check what Time Zone you have it set at. Mine is reading correctly for me. Just check it and send me a Pm if you have futher problems. But,I believe it is not set to your time zone.

Susie this all goes down, I think you should write a book.............. it has best seller written all over it.

thanks for your post! I really don't want to argue about numbers and you all know that I am a yeahsayer. But I`m afraid this time Susie has mixed something up. The point is it's not .67 DINAR to the dollar as she said, but .67 dollar to the DINAR if those 3 zeros are removed...

But let's stop it here. Erare humanum est! All these figures are speculation anyway. And if it is so, I'd gladly accept the .67 even if it's not quite what I am hoping for!

Love, Antje

That is right, but .67 dollars to 1 dinar = $1.49 per dinar or thereabouts I believe. If it was the other way it would be 1 dinar = 67 cents. Someone correct me if I have this bass ackwards

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq's government shut down the capital with a one-day curfew on Saturday, ordering all cars and pedestrians off the streets, but giving no reason for the measure.

The curfew would remain in place until 6:00 a.m. on Sunday, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's office said in a one-line statement. The U.S. military did not comment.

The announcement came after a week of clashes and bombings heralded the start of the holy month of Ramadan. U.S. commanders say the past week saw a record number of suicide bombings and the last two weeks have seen a surge in violence.

Although no explanation was given for the curfew, residents of the Adamiya neighbourhood in the north of the capital said they heard gunfire and explosions near dusk on Friday.

U.S. and Iraqi forces have launched a seven-week-old security crackdown in the capital, targeting scattered neighbourhoods for sweeps. But Sunni and Shi'ite sectarian militia have clashed in several parts of the city over recent days.

The Ramadan holy month began a week ago with a massive bomb in a Shi'ite neighbourhood that killed at least 34 people. A Sunni militant group claimed responsibility for that attack and said it was revenge for killings by Shi'ite death squads.

The curfew comes a day after gunmen killed the brother-in- law of the chief judge in former leader Saddam Hussein's genocide trial and badly wounded his sister and nephew.

It was at least the fourth killing closely connected to the U.S.-sponsored court, following those of three defence lawyers, and will raise new questions about its ability to conduct fair trials in a nation on the verge of sectarian civil war.

"This was purposely and intentionally from groups which are connected to Saddam," spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh told Reuters, adding that he expected judge Mohammed al-Ureybi nonetheless to continue presiding over the trial which he took over last week.

The government sacked his predecessor for saying Saddam was "not a dictator".

Police said two officers were killed on Friday in clashes in Baghdad's violent southern Dora district. A Sunni tribal leader was killed by gunmen in the same area.

Some tribal sheikhs have become targets for militants, especially following a deal this week by tribes in western Anbar province to take on al Qaeda alongside government forces.

The tribes captured five militants in the Anbar province capital Ramadi on Friday, including three foreign fighters from Yemen, police and tribal leaders said.

The U.S. commander in Ramadi, Colonel Sean MacFarland, hailed the tribes' action. He said his troops' mission was not to defeat the insurgency but to reduce violence to a manageable level, allowing Iraqi security forces to take over.

Attacks on U.S. and Iraqi government forces in Ramadi had fallen to 15 a day from 20 a few months ago, he told reporters in the Pentagon by video link, adding much more had to be done.


It seems this may just be a reaction to the violence and nothing more...

Remember we are all doing our best to slant this into a Reval, but let's keep our heads here too!

But it's just too damn tasty isn't it?

O.K. let's see if I can make this clear.

1 dollar = .00067 dinar
Move 3 zeros
1 dollar = .67 dinar

1 dollar divided by .67 equals 1.49
